Okay let me first get my frustration out of the way. That cover! Hate it.
Loved Brett and JT. A very romantic story about love and loss.
The plot device with the letter infuriated me. JT had plenty of opportunity to put the letters back. It felt contrived for a confrontion from the moment it happened. And that really is my only criticism. No, too many sex scenes but I can skim them :) S yeah the letter thing was my only criticism in an otherwise sappy romantic read. ( )

In reality a 4.5 star rating, just can't quite make it 5.

First of all let me say that I really enjoyed this book. I wasn't sure if it would be completely angst-ridden, especially with the blurb. But while there was that constant underlying thread of loss, of sadness and grief, it wasn't overwhelming nor did it take over in the book.

What I got instead was a slow build, slow burn relationship between a grieving, guilt-ridden man and a young guy trying to find his feet. There is an age difference in play here (roughly 14 years) but at no time did I find any extreme emphasis on this, which I appreciate.

The building of the friendship and the romantic relationship between the two MC's was, as I mentioned before, very slow. Which again fit the book to a tee. I love the time that was spent getting to know each other and dealing with the past. And when Brett and JT do finally get together, it's hot and sexy just the way I like as well lol.

So why not 5 stars? Well I had a few little niggles towards the end. Certain issues did seem resolved a little quicker than I think was realistic and once or twice I questioned an action or response. But overall this is a fantastic read that I would recommend for lovers of hot, sexy cowboys.... ( )

OK, if I had a shelf titled Over-The-Top-Sticky-Sweet-M/M-Romance-In-The-Best-Possible-Way that is where this book would live. [b:Unbreak My Heart|18308403|Unbreak My Heart|K-lee Klein|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1376260167s/18308403.jpg|25803782] is off-the-charts romantic and had two MCs I absolutely adored. I cried during the first 10 pages of this book, while reading a letter MC Brett had written to his dead lover Walt. I almost decided to stop reading, thinking it would be too emotional, but I kept going and I was rewarded with a beautifully emotional tale of two men falling in love. This is going right on my fuck yeah, 5 stars shelf because it is one of the most romantic books I have ever read, M/M or M/F. You are going to fall head over heels for Brett and MC J.T. No question in my mind.

If you like reading about friendship that turns into deep, emotional love, couples that wait until there is an emotional connection before having sex, broken down cowboys full of guilt and shame, overbearing but well meaning best friends and country Momma's, and more romance than you can shake a stick at, I can HIGHLY RECOMMEND [b:Unbreak My Heart|18308403|Unbreak My Heart|K-lee Klein|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1376260167s/18308403.jpg|25803782] to you. I loved this fucking book!!! ( )
